[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/FORGE-192?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.... ] James Perkins commented on FORGE-192: ------------------------------------- Maybe in the API you could have something like: {code:java} public abstract class ConsoleMessages { public interface MessageKey { String getKey(); } public String getMessage(final MessageKey key) { return getBundle().getString(key.getKey()); } public String getFormattedMessage(final MessageKey key, final Object param) { return String.format(getMessage(key), param); } public String getFormattedMessage(final MessageKey key, final Object param1, final Object param2) { return String.format(getMessage(key), param1, param2); } public String getFormattedMessage(final MessageKey key, final Object... params) { return String.format(getMessage(key), params); } protected abstract ResourceBundle getBundle(); } {code} Then maybe in the {{ShellPrintWriter}} and {{ShellPrompt}} you have respective {{ShellPrintWriter.write(ConsoleMessage cm, MessageKey key, Object... paramers)}} methods. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
